Stingers are very iffy against recon drones, usually they can easily evade the missile.
I’m grinding to build my 10.3 british lineup and I’ll personally likely run both the HVM and AD stormer in my lineup.

Yeah, I felt like they gave it the smaller gun purely to mitigate it as an anti-tank but then gave it a BR where it would have been appropriate for that gun. 9.3 I think would have been fine for it.

Dont forget the French got the first TT River-class!
Yeah… But compared to starstreaks, stingers will be outright OP vs recon drones :D and always got the gun if they fly too close
But heres hoping they might buff the stingers to IRL level at some point

Not sure about 9.3, but on the other hand that missile Shilka and the Machbet are at that BR too, tho from what others say those two seem to be not all too great.
9.7 would be fair I’d say.
Is the Su-24M not able to mount the KAB-500S on pylon 2 in the custom loadouts? It has it in the premade loadout but it can’t be equipped when making a new custom loadout. You can copy the premade loadout and use it but when you close and re-open the Dev client it gets removed from the loadout and asks you to change the loadout.
Missing from the selection screen.
It shows on pylon 2 in the premade loadout.
Gets removed when you re-log into the Dev server

I think it’s probably being seen as 1:1 with the LAV-AD, though it has less missiles ready to fire (and overall I think)
Thats true
That’s what I’ve read others claim as well, but the Stormer just seems like an overall worse platform
Plus the LAV-AD gets the funny rocket pods
Plus plus the LAV can swim
LAV-AD probably has the much better mobility as well

It’s a lav-ad that trades 4 stingers and the rocket pod for a search radar (that didn’t seem to work well on the dev server when I tried it), so I think it shouldn’t go lower than 9.7.
Fair enough, I forgot the LAV-AD existed originally and was just going by other IR launchers like the SANTAL at 9.3, Machbet at 9.3 or the Ozelot / Gepard 1A2 at 9.7

Last time I checked the radar was unfinished. It was just a copy of the ADAD from the Stormer HVM

from what I could see the Radar was just using the HVM’s IRST as a placeholder, at least on the initial iteration of dev

Lav has only 18km/h Backward speed.
Stormer has reverse transmission. Both 80km/h
Also stormer can turn around on spot.
